<description><![CDATA[<ul><li>qualche mese fa, mi è caduto dalle mani mentre lo riponevo in un cassetto, l'hard disk esterno wd elements, e ora quando lo collego al pc, fa qualche rumore meccanico e un bip sonoro, e non si apre più la cartella, il pc non lo legge.<br />Ho portato l'hard disk in un negozio di riparazione, ma mi ha chiesto 1000 euro con apertura dell'hard disk in camera bianca, con la possibilità di recupero dati con una parcentuale del 30%.

<title><![CDATA[Solid State Drive: utility disco non riesce a formattare]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Ho un disco interno ssd Crucial che usavo nel mio iMac e che da qualche tempo usavo come disco esterno collegato con un adattatore Usb 3  Sabrent. Il disco ha sempre funzionato sia fuori che dentro ma quando ho provato a collegarlo ad un iPad Air 3 attraverso l’adattatore Lightning usb-3, il disco, dopo essere comparso per un attimo su File di iPad, è scomparso. Da allora non riesco più a montarlo sul Finder di nessun mac. Utility disco riesce a vederlo ancora ma se cerco di formattarlo il processo si blocca mentre crea la mappa di partizioni,  pare sia impossibile attivarlo. Ho provato anche con Disk Warrior riuscendo ad entrare qualche dato, ma il disco comunque non si può più formattare (Impossibile attivare “TM”. (com.apple.DiskManagement.disenter errore 49153).</p>

<p>avete qualche idea?</p>

<p>ho un problema: non riesco a trovare un adattatore per collegare l’hard disk del mio vecchio HP Pavillon DV che ha un attacco serial ata ma diverso dal solito:</p>

<title><![CDATA[External Storage: Internamente contiene una porta SerialATA?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Salve, volevo chiedere a riguardo di un hard disk esterno Toshiba di modello HDTB310EK3AA.</p>

<p>Ho intenzione di smontare il case esterno ed utilizzare l'hard disk contenuto come hard disk interno per Xbox 360.</p>

<p>Il modello precedente, HDTB110EK3BA sempre Toshiba, che ho già smontato, all'interno presentava un hard disk SerialATA ed un pezzo rimovibile che convertiva il SerialATA in USB 3.0.</p>

<p>Ciò che vi chiedo è se anche il modello HDTB310EK3AA è composto similmente o, come altri hard disk sempre Toshiba che ho smontato, presenta la porta USB 3.0 saldata direttamente sull'hard disk, rendendo impossibile l'uso come hard disk esterno.</p>

<p>Ve lo chiedo prima di aprirlo perchè, se all'interno non è come SerialATA, aprendolo lo rovinerei inutilmente.</p>

<p>Non sono riuscito a trovare altrove questa informazione, se saprete aiutarmi ve ne sarò grato.</p>

<title><![CDATA[SD Card: SD Cards Slow Down Android... Sorry if it's been asked before...]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>So I know plenty of people will probably get riled up over this, but I'm gonna ask it anyway...</p>

<p>Do Android phones get slowed down by having an SD card installed?</p>

<p>Before you jump right to the NO answer, because I know that most people think that this is one of the major plusses of Android as an OS, and everyone uses SD cards... Hear me out...</p>

<p>I've had a T-Mobile G1, G2, MyTouch 4g Slide, Galaxy S3, Note 3 and Note 4. With every single one of them I've used SD cards. I've always had pitifully slow experiences, but I love Android so I stick around. It's always great when I first get it, or after a system wipe. But once I put in an SD card, things start to slow down. No I haven't been using the same SD card. Yes I've formatted the SD cards in various stages of using them. They're all top of the line, highly recommended cards. Whatever is recommended in the forums as the best of the best at that time is what I've gotten. They're not particularly full. The main reason I get them is for the camera, because all those pictures and videos can fill up my internal storage which I have to use for apps and games. I currently have around 10gb free on my 32gb Note 4. I wiped my phone (and formatted my 64gb card) less than a month ago because of bad performance. After getting all set back up and running great, I popped back in my freshly formatted 64gb card. Pretty much right away I started noticing the difference in performance. Now it's been a month and I actually have stuff on the card, and it's just dreadful. Opening the camera can take a solid 10 seconds. Sometimes I hit home and everything is just frozen for 5-10 seconds before the home comes back up. Opening Facebook brings up a white screen for at least 3-5 seconds. Opening the app switcher always takes 5 seconds (that's a known bug from what I've <a href="https://buyessayclub.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">read</a>). It's just laggy. It's awful. And again, I've formatted the card, so I know there's not some data on it that's causing the issues. As for whether or not it's the card itself? Well like I said, in a history of 6 phones, I've probably had 8 or 9 different cards. So while I haven't specifically tried a different card in THIS phone, I can 99% guarantee that a different card wouldn't make a difference. Plus if that WAS the problem... What did I get 8 or 9 bad cards out of 8 or 9 cards? is the microSD card industry that bad? haha.</p>

<p>So anyway. I think this weekend I'm gonna figure out what is on my card currently since the last format (who knows what apps put what on there), and see if it will be cool for me to just pop out the card and try living SD-free for a little bit, even though it's gonna be impossible to manage storage with just the 32gb included. But if it works faster, then I'll know for sure.</p>

<p>In the meantime, I'm just curious. Am I alone here? I know I'm not, because I have a couple friends who used to call me crazy but have recently started saying (and acting like it's THEIR observation and I never said it before) that Android with an SD Card in sucks. But I'm wondering in this forum, since I&quot;ve gotten help in here in the past, who agrees with me?</p>

<p>Here's hoping the T-Mobile variant of the Note 5 has a bare minimum of 64gb storage (praying for 128). I'll gladly pay extra for it.</p>

<title><![CDATA[Solid State Drive: How to repair an internal SSD that was damaged by setting up RAID?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>When I say that I “did RAID on it,” I mean that I configured it in RAID mode. I did this by configuring the SATA port to use <strong>SuperSpeed Storage Configuration (RAID 0)</strong> on a <strong>ROG MAXIMUS XI Gene</strong> motherboard with BIOS version <strong>2004</strong>. The RAID configuration was created between an internal <strong>HDD (I don’t know which one right now)</strong> and an internal <strong>KingSpec SSD</strong>, model <strong>P3-256</strong>, with a capacity of <strong>256.0 GB</strong> and a <strong>SATA III 6 Gb/s</strong> interface. I am attaching the S.M.A.R.T. information for the SSD I mentioned earlier. It appears in the last two attached screenshots, in chronological order from right to left. The partition screen in DMDE looks like the one shown in the image further up and to the left. When I double-click the <strong>$Noname</strong> partitions and expand <strong>$Root</strong>, I can see a folder/file tree underneath each one. This is shown in all the attached screenshots, in chronological order from bottom to top and from right to left.</p>

<p>After configuring the RAID mode, I removed the HDD I had installed and configured the RAID mode alongside the SSD I mentioned there (the one I want to repair and am asking you how to repair). I then connected another HDD, installed Windows on it, and afterward connected the previously mentioned SSD. In the BIOS/UEFI, under Advanced → PCH Storage Configuration → SATA Mode Selection, it was set to AHCI, after previously having been configured as Intel RST Premium With Intel Optane System Acceleration (RAID). I had only installed and configured RAID mode with the penultimate-mentioned HDD and the previously mentioned SSD.</p>

<title><![CDATA[Western Digital My Book: Why isn't my WD My Book external hard drive being recognized?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Unlike some other people with this problem, my hard drive isn't showing up on my PC (Windows 7) or my husband's Macbook Air, and although it has a flashing blue light when plugged in, it isn't making that spinning sound, which has me worried it might be a gonner. It's about 10 years old and has ALL my kids' photos stored on it. I just went to back up my PC and it isn't working. Feeling worried.  I tried several of the solutions that involve checking for bad drivers and trying to see about renaming it or moving it to another place, but I just don't see it in there, so I don't know what to do. I can try to order another power cable, but if the light is flashing blue, is it even possible that's the problem?</p>

<p>Thanks for any help you can give!!!</p>

<p>Whitney</p>
